Our Take

Matt Monro's Complete 1960-62 Recordings is a delightful trip down memory lane, showcasing the smooth vocals and timeless charm that made Monro a beloved crooner of his time. From the moment the brass section kicks in on "My Kind of Girl," you can't help but be transported to a smoky jazz club in 1960s London. Monro's voice is like butter melting on a warm crumpet, effortlessly gliding through each track with a sophisticated coolness that is hard to replicate. Whether he's belting out a heart-wrenching ballad or delivering a cheeky wink through an upbeat swing number, Monro's vocal prowess shines through on every song. The arrangements on this collection are lush and full-bodied, perfectly complementing Monro's voice without overpowering it. The brass and string sections are tight and polished, adding an extra layer of elegance to the already classy recordings. Standout tracks include the timeless classics "Softly as I Leave You" and "My Love and Devotion," which highlight Monro's ability to convey emotion with subtlety and grace. But it's not all smooth sailing - tracks like "From Russia with Love" showcase Monro's versatility and ability to tackle different genres with ease. Overall, Matt Monro's Complete 1960-62 Recordings is a must-have for any fan of classic crooners or anyone looking to add a touch of sophistication to their music collection. So pour yourself a glass of whisky, sit back, and let Matt Monro serenade you into a state of pure musical bliss. Cheers, darling.
